• _UID: FD86E2C391B74B709F2B74090064CAAD4DEB

Notes:

Anne de Beauchamp, apparently also Countess of Warwick in her own right; born c Sep 1426; married 1434 Richard Neville ("The Kingmaker"), 16th (if in right of his wife) or 1st Earl of Warwick (by the instrument of 2 March 1449/50 creating him and his wife Earl and Countess of Warwick each for his or her life, with remainder after both parties' death to the heirs of Anne's body, then to her half-sister Margaret, Countess of Shrewsbury and the heirs male of her body, then to a vaguely defined body of persons called the "right heirs" of her (Anne's) father Richard, late Earl of Warwick, and dspm just before 20 Sep 1492. [Burke's Peerage]

--------------------

He [Richard Neville] married, in 1434, Anne, apparently suo jure COUNTESS OF WARWICK, sister and eventually coheir (sole heir of the whole blood) of Henry (DE BEAUCHAMP), DUKE and EARL OF WARWICK, 4th daughter of Richard, 13th EARL OF WARWICK, being only daughter by his 2nd wife, Isabel. He, who is known in history as "The Kingmaker," appears never to have been attainted and died s.p.m. as above, 14 April 1471, aged 42, being buried, with his brother, at Bisham Abbey, Berks. At his death the Earldom of Warwick [1450] remained (according to the grant in that year) in his widow for her life, while the Earldom of Salisbury reverted to the Crown and the Baronies of Montagu and Monthermer fell into abeyance between his 2 daughters and coheirs. His widow had accompanied Margaret of Anjou to England, April 1471, and, Iearning of her husband's death, took sanctuary at Beaulieu Abbey. From there she later petitioned Edward IV for her lands and dower. Shortly before 3 June 1473 she was removed, probably to Middleham, by her son-in-law Richard, Duke of Gloucester; and in May 1474, by Act of Parliament, her estates were divided between Clarence and Gloucester, "as if the said Countess were now naturally dead." Having survived both her daughters, she was granted by Henry VII, as from Michaelmas 1485, a yearly pension of 500 marks; and she obtained an Act of Parliament, November-December 1487, for the annulment of that of 1474 and her restoration to her family estates. These, however, she at once (presumably by previous arrangement), 13 December 1487, settled on the Crown, saving the manor of Erdington, co. Warwick, which she reserved for herself and her heirs. On 11 December 1490 she was appointed Principal Keeper of the Forest of Wychwood, Oxon., receiving at the same time a large grant for life of some of her former lands in many counties. She, who was born circa September 1426 at Caversham, died shortly before 20 September 1492, aged about 66, and was succeeded in the Earldom of Warwick by Edward Plantagenet, her grandson and heir.

EARLDOM OF WARWICK (XII) 1369

THOMAS (DE BEAUCHAMP), defacto EARL OF WARWICK, also hereditary Sheriff of Worcestershire and Chamberlain of the Exchequer, 2nd but 1st surviving son and heir male, was born before 16 March 1338/9; knighted, with his brother Guy, July 1355; was granted for his good service a pension of 100 marks, 26 November following; was going to Prussia, with his brother William, November 1367, and to Brittany, May 1368; and had seisin of his inheritance as heir male of entail, 7 February 1369/70. He was sent with the Earl of Suffolk to Cherbourg, July 1370, to escort the King of Navarre to England; sailed with the King's unsuccessful expedition for the relief of Rochelle and Thouars, August 1372; nominated K.G. 1373; took part in John of Gaunt's historic but fruitless march from Calais to Bordeaux, August-December 1373, and in the descent on Brittany, 1375; Chief Commissioner to enforce the truce with Scotland, 29 January and 29 July 1375, and a Commissioner for the same, 6 September 1380. In the "Good Parliament" of 1376 and in those of February and October 1377 he was a Commissioner appointed by the Lords to act with the Commons for reform. At the Coronation of Richard II, 16 July 1377, he carried the third sword and exercised his hereditary office of Pantler. He was appointed Admiral of the fleet towards the North, 5 December 1377; Guardian of the King communi sententia, circa Februaty 1379/80; a Commissioner of retrenchment, 2 March following; and he was going to Ireland with the Earl of March April 1380. During the Peasants' Revolt, June 1381, he was with the King in the Tower and was later sent, with Sir Thomas Percy, to protect St. Albans Abbey. In 1385 he accompanied Richard II on his only expedition into Scotland. On 14 November 1387 the Earls of Gloucester, Warwick and Arundel, having taken up arms, "appealed" of treason the King's advisers, the Duke of Ireland (de Vere) and the Earl of Suffolk; and, with the Earl of Derby, they trapped and defeated de Vere at Radcot Bridge, 20 December following. In the "Merciless Parliament" that followed, February 1387/8, these Lords Appellant, including Warwick, impeached de Vere and Suffolk and other leaders of the King's party, some of whom were executed. They further obtained a grant of ?20,000 for themselves, 2 June 1388, and, having introduced some reforms, remained in power till May 1389. After some years of retirement and as a result of a law-suit in 1396, he was compelled to hand over Gower and Swansea Castle to the Earl of Nottingham, 1 June 1397. Possibly as a result of this he may have joined in the alleged plot of Gloucester and Arundel (which was betrayed to Richard Il by Nottingham), for which he was arrested in the house of the Bishop of Exeter at Temple Bar on a charge of high treason and committed, 12 July 1397, to the Tower of London and afterwards to Tintagel Castle, Cornwall. At his trial in Parliament, 28 September following, he confessed his treason and pleaded guilty, whereby accordingly his honours and estates were forfeited and he himself banished to the Isle of Man under guard of William (le Scrope), Earl of Wiltshire, who treated him harshly. Being liberated on the accession of Henry IV, at whose Coronation, 13 October 1399, he bore the third sword, he was restored in Parliament, 19 November following. He became a member of the Council, before 4 December 1399, accompanied the King against the rebel Earls, January 1399/1400, and was at Shrewsbury, with the Archbishop of Canterbury and Duke of York, 15 October 1400.

He married, before April 1381, Margaret, daughter of William (FERRERS), 3rd LORD FERRERS (of Groby), by his 1st wife, Margaret, sister and (in her issue) coheir of William, 2nd EARL OF SUFFOLK, 3rd daughter of Robert (DE UFFORD), 1st EARL OF SUFFOLK.
